Title says it all. I’ll go first:

I don’t really have any on my computer (all I use that for is Vim, Firefox, and Git), but on my phone: Orbot (basically Tor as a VPN on your phone).

    Everyone knows about VLC but I don’t think many people know it has a really good Android app! I use it as my primary music app and it’s great. Even has android auto support and a surprisingly sleek interface.

      I’m assuming it doesn’t work with Jellyfin or Subsonic, does it?

        I haven’t used those so I don’t think so. But it lets you add music from local networks, and you can add streams from a URL (even supports youtube links, which is a way to watch youtube without ads without pihole or a third party app).

          Huh, TIL - I’ve been using VLC for ages on my phone and on my tablet, but I never knew this. I just tried it - open Youtube app, select random Video, share, select VLC, wait a bit and it plays!

          Mind blown

        I haven’t used VLC on my phone. I prefer MPV on both desktop and mobile (it’s the media player used in JMP), and it works with the jellyfin app just fine!
